[Hajj 22:73] O people, an example is being
illustrated
therefore listen to it attentively; "Those whom you worship besides
Allah
can never create a fly even if they all come together for it; and if a
fly took away something from them, they cannot retrieve that from it;
how
weak are the seeker and the sought!"

[Hajj 22:74] They did not realise the
importance of Allah
as was His right; indeed Allah is Almighty, Dominant.

[Hajj 22:75] Allah chooses the Noble
Messengers from the
angels, and from men; indeed Allah is All Hearing, All Seeing.

[Hajj 22:76] He knows all that is before them
and all
that is behind them; and towards Allah is the return of all matters.

[Hajj 22:77] O People who Believe, bow and
prostrate yourselves,
and worship your Lord, and do good deeds in the hope of attaining
salvation.

[Hajj 22:78] And fight in Allah's cause as is
the true
manner of fighting; He has preferred you and has not kept any hardship
upon you in religion; the religion of your father Ibrahim; Allah has
named
you Muslims – in the previous Books and in this Qur’an, so that the
Noble Messenger be your guardian and witness, and you be witness against
other people; therefore keep the prayer established and give charity, and
hold fast to the rope of Allah; He is your Master; so what an excellent
Master and what an excellent Supporter!
